The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2178

"Thalia called?" Lucas frowned, interrupting Melody. His tone elevated noticeably, a departure from his usual calm demeanor.

Melody nodded. "Your phone has her name saved as that. But when I asked who she was, she didn't want to tell me."

"Don't worry about it. She just likes teasing people."

Melody forced a smile. "Really? But why does she seem to know everything about us..."

Melody's gaze was piercing as she stared at Lucas. Although his expression changed quickly, she caught a hint of evasion in his eyes.

"I'm not surprised as she can be quite the gossip. Maybe she asked Edmund about us."

Melody clenched her fists under the table.

"Huh, it sounds like you know her quite well too. Don't you think you should've told me who she is first? She didn't answer me, and you didn't tell me either."

Lucas frowned, seeming a bit puzzled by Melody's sudden assertive tone. "Thalia is a friend of mine. You'll meet her in the future."

Melody wanted to ask more questions, but she saw Lucas pick up his phone and excuse himself to make a call.

It did not take much to guess who he was calling, but why was he in such a hurry to call Thalia back?

'Who exactly is Thalia, and why does Lucas care so much about her?' thought Melody.

In their brief conversation, whenever Thalia's name was mentioned, Lucas' entire demeanor became noticeably concerned.
